Congratulations goes to the third grade class of Ms. Loflin (3-A)! They had the winning door for the contest of “Say No to Drugs.” The grand prize was a trip to the Children’s Museum and a wonderful celebration was enjoyed by all on March 2, 2010! Escorted by their private tour guide, the students visited exhibits such as the Building Brainstorm Exhibit and Building Zone, where we discovered that quite a few of our students displayed their engineering, designing and architect skills. Moving through the Kidtropolis Exhibit, students “got a job” (to the chaperones’ delight!) and quickly became bankers, business owners and city leaders. As the students visited the exhibits and explored new ideas, the learning experience continued with action-packed fun! The last stop was the very interactive FlowWorks Exhibit and students explored all of the possibilities through the energy of water (without trying to get wet!). This was a trip to remember! A great big thank you to all of the chaperones! Your supportive presence and smiles were very much appreciated!
Guided Reading in Harmony School of Ingenuity
As Harmony School of Ingenuity ,we have our Guided Reading components and we started to use them in our school. Guided reading has many of the same components as shared reading. However, it is conducted with a smaller number of students and focuses more on the individual reading needs of each child. During guided reading, teachers work with students at their instructional level to guide them in using the context, visual, and structure cues within stories to generate meaning. By using instructional level texts that gradually increase in difficulty, students apply strategies in context and feel successful! The end goal, as with any literacy component used in kindergarten, is for students to become confident, proficient readers who LOVE to read!

After the judging for the science fair was completed, everyone gathered for the Opening Ceremonies in the cafeteria. Students performed songs and dance to celebrate Harmony’s blending of cultures. The honorable US Congressman Al Green, along with Texas House Representatives Alma Allen and Al Edwards, shared words about our school and how they were excited to see Harmony School of Ingenuity’s youth participating in enrichment activities. The First Annual Science Fair and Opening Ceremony were great successes, only to be followed by more in the future.
